Wazzup Pilipinas!
Google Street View initiates its very first 360-degree panoramic shots of the Philippines at Intramuros, Manila. We can now virtually look around certain places of the walled city using our online gadgets and computers. The sites now available for viewing are the San Agustin Church, Baluarte De San Diego, Plaza San Luis Complex and Fort Santiago.
This was revealed to us during the Google Street View Launch held at the SMX Convention Center at the Mall of Asia a few days ago with Department of Tourism Secretary Mon Jimenez as guest of honor.
It will continue driving Street View cars in the Philippines starting with places in Metro Manila to capture more panoramic images of the famous tourist spots in the country. This includes historic or heritage spots like the structures in Intramuros where they chose as a starting point of this project because of the vast number of structures there that are almost turning into ruins.
